Darl Black

Darl Black has been enjoying the outdoors since he was old enough to accompany his father on fishing, boating and hunting outings.

Trained as a teacher, Darl switched careers to pursue outdoor writing and photography, specializing in freshwater angling. His byline and photos have appeared regularly in national and regional print publications for over 30 years, as well as appearances on radio, television and as seminar speaker at sport shows.

During the 1990s, he completed five fishing videos for Quest Productions. In addition to ongoing writing projects, Darl prepares the online NW PA Fishing Report on behalf of PA Great Lakes Region tourism and has recently offered his services as licensed fishing guide.
